Review of Elvis (2022)

By Luke Hicks (31) for The Film Stage (3,162) on 28 May 2022

Review of Elvis (2022)

By Anna Bogutskaya (11) for Little White Lies (3,136) on 26 May 2022

Tensing, thrusting, dripping with sweat and the promise of a good time after the curtain falls, Butler gets the moves, the voice and, most…

Review of Elvis (2022)

By Phil De Semlyen (265) for Time Out (7,510) on 26 May 2022

Every trick and technique here, from ingenious match cuts, to split screens and even comic-book cells, works to soup up the storytelling…

Review of Elvis (2022)

By Stephanie Zacharek (2,333) for Time (1,811) on 26 May 2022

Luhrmann and his co-writers Sam Bromell and Craig Pearce use the story of Elvis’ supremely crooked manager, Colonel Tom Parker (Tom Hanks,…

Review of Elvis (2022)

By Rafael Motamayor (108) for Slashfilm (971) on 26 May 2022

Elvis is the Baz Luhrmanniest film Baz Luhrmann has made yet, a compilation of his greatest filmmaking hits, all employed for a film as excessive…

Review of Elvis (2022)

By Charles Bramesco (223) for The Playlist (3,871) on 26 May 2022

Luhrmann sees the chief utility of Elvis (or “Booby,” as his loved ones called him) as a pedestal for his everything-all-the-time maximalism,…

Review of Elvis (2022)

By Joshua Rothkopf (1,058) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 25 May 2022

It may not be slavishly devoted to the facts (this isn't your typical birth-to-deather), but as with Todd Haynes's glam fantasia Velvet Goldmine,…

Review of Elvis (2022)

By Jordan Farley (104) for Total Film (3,532) on 25 May 2022

The toe-tapping beats of this full-throated biopic will be familiar in more ways than one but Baz Luhrmann, like Elvis, knows how to put on…

Review of Elvis (2022)

By Robbie Collin (1,612) for The Telegraph (1,120) on 25 May 2022

Yes, it’s a bright and splashy jukebox epic with an irresistible central performance from Austin Butler…

Review of Elvis (2022)

By Clarisse Loughrey (259) for The Independent (259) on 25 May 2022

By framing Elvis’s story through Parker’s, Luhrmann’s film is cannily able to take a step back from the intimate details of the musician’s…

Review of Elvis (2022)

By Steve Pond (235) for TheWrap (3,203) on 25 May 2022

There’s enough energy and flash, though, to overcome most nit-picking, and Butler throws himself into a performance that’s wildly physical…

Review of Elvis (2022)

By Jim Vejvoda (203) for IGN (1,013) on 25 May 2022

Although its rapid pacing doesn't always allow for the dramatic moments to resonate for as long as they could, Baz Luhrmann's Elvis biopic…

Review of Elvis (2022)

By David Rooney (943) for The Hollywood Reporter (7,050) on 25 May 2022

If the writing too seldom measures up to the astonishing visual impact, the affinity the director feels for his showman subject is both contagious…

Review of Elvis (2022)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Variety (12,700) on 25 May 2022

Luhrmann has made a woefully imperfect but at times arresting drama that builds to something moving and true…

Review of Elvis (2022)

By Tim Grierson (1,482) for Screen Daily (1,021) on 25 May 2022

If Elvis suffers from a familiar Luhrmann weakness — style outpacing substance — the concert sequences effortlessly illuminate why Presley…

Review of Elvis (2022)

By Justin Chang (1,535) for Los Angeles Times (12,977) on 25 May 2022

To complain that “Elvis” is basically a compilation of musical-biopic conventions is a bit like complaining about a greatest-hits album;…

Review of Elvis (2022)

By Peter Bradshaw (3,667) for The Guardian (2,969) on 25 May 2022

It’s not a movie so much as 159-minute trailer for a film called Elvis – a relentless, frantically flashy montage, epic and yet negligible…

Review of Elvis (2022)

By Richard Lawson (539) for Vanity Fair (761) on 25 May 2022

It is the film’s bitterest irony that a story about a man controlled by a domineering force seems itself unwilling to give its subject true…

Review of Elvis (2022)
